Dual‐Functional Ingestible Passive Capsules for High‐Throughput Intestinal Sampling with Sealed Containment and Targeted Drug Delivery

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
To address challenges in high‐throughput intestinal sampling with sealed containment and target drug delivery, we developed a dual‐functional ingestible passive capsule with a dual‐triggered control system based on pH‐response and mechanical actuation.

Chemical Impacts of the Microbiome Across Scales Reveal Novel Conjugated Bile Acids [PDF]

, 2019
A mosaic of cross-phyla chemical interactions occurs between all metazoans and their microbiomes. In humans, the gut harbors the heaviest microbial load, but many organs, particularly those with a mucosal surface, associate with highly adapted and ...

Engineering natural microbiomes toward enhanced bioremediation by microbiome modeling

Nature Communications
Engineering natural microbiomes for biotechnological applications remains challenging, as metabolic interactions within microbiomes are largely unknown, and practical principles and tools for microbiome engineering are still lacking.

Integrated Flexible Zwitterionic Electrochemical Sensor Platform for Real‐Time Salivary Glucose Quantification

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
A flexible electrochemical sensor platform can enable continuous, real‐time monitoring of salivary glucose for applications confined to spaces such as the oral cavity. Surface modifications with Prussian blue, chitosan, and zwitterionic polymers enhance sensitivity, selectivity, and antiadherent performance.

Somatic cell count as an indicator of subclinical mastitis and increased inflammatory response in asymptomatic lactating women

Microbiology Spectrum
Subclinical mastitis is an asymptomatic inflammatory condition that can be difficult to define and diagnose. In the dairy industry, subclinical mastitis is diagnosed by milk somatic cell counts (SCCs) of ≥250,000 cells mL−1.

Comparative analysis of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii genomes shows a high level of genome plasticity and warrants separation into new species-level taxa

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Faecalibacterium prausnitzii is a ubiquitous member of the human gut microbiome, constituting up to 15% of the total bacteria in the human gut. Substantial evidence connects decreased levels of F.

Benchmarking urine storage and collection conditions for evaluating the female urinary microbiome. [PDF]

, 2019
Standardized conditions for collection, preservation and storage of urine for microbiome research have not been established. We aimed to identify the effects of the use of preservative AssayAssure® (AA), and the effects of storage time and temperatures ...

Microbial Contribution to Soiling and Its Impact on Photovoltaic Module Soiling in Arid Zones of the Atacama Desert

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Microorganisms colonizing photovoltaic surfaces in the Atacama desert form biofilms that enhance particle adhesion and reduce energy yield. This study identifies UV‐resistant bacteria and carotenoid‐producing strains that interfere with PV performance.

Multiomics Analyses Reveal an Essential Role of Tryptophan in Treatment of csDMARDs in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease characterized by joint inflammation. Approximately 50% of patients show insufficient response to traditional synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs. This study aims to elucidate differential molecular profiles of the mechanisms underlying drug responses through multi‐omics strategy.
